Posted on the NMB website. National Mediation Board finding:

"Chautauqua Airlines (Chautauqua), Shuttle America (Shuttle), Republic Airlines (RA), and Midwest Airlines (Midwest) are operating as a single transportation system known as Republic Airways Holdings, Inc."

In addition:
"Midwest will surrender its [FAA] Operating Certificate to the Department of Transportation and return its IATA designator code of "YX" to that agency. At that point Midwest will cease to exist as an air carrier, as it will have neither operational aircraft nor an operating certificate . . . . Republic will then seek permission to operate RA as RA d/b/a Midwest . . . . Midwest will eventually be dissolved and Republic Airlines will replace the aircraft operations of Midwest using its current assets and operate as Republic Airlines d/b/a Midwest Airlines [MWA]."

Unfortunately, no.

Our scope looks at certificates, not business entities. We've barked up that tree several times...
